While the parents are away...

I went to the pet store, and bought a giant, almost 1/2 pound bag of catnip for some cat toys that I'm knitting. I thought it would be cute to stuff them with catnip!

Heh. I left said catnip on my desk on accident, and came home to this:

That is Lenore. Lenore is high as a kite in this picture. She is rolling in catnip, that the kitties dragged over to the couch, opened up the bag, and proceeded to frolic in the stuff, grinding it deep into the fibers of my couch. I will attempt a steam clean, but I'm guessing that this stuff will get the kitties high for years to come.

She was too high to even realize that she was in any kind of trouble. The other cats are smart. The booked it once the door opened and they saw my face. I know they were thinking, "Scram! Let the cute one take the fall"!

Here is a close up of her fur covered in the kitty weed

And this is her about five minutes later as she started to "come down"

Silly cats. At least now I don't need to knit cat toys. They can just sniff the couch for the next five years.
